Intel Alumni Network Presents Strategic Inflection Points | How Machine Learning Redefines Computing, Industries, and Your Life Headlines these days are smattered with references to Artificial Intelligence(AI) and Machine Learning(ML). Are you wondering how these technologies are already impacting our lives and how they are affecting the tech industry in which we work? We’ve gathered an esteemed panel of experts, all of whom are Intel alumni or current Intel employees for what promises to be a compelling evening.  They will explore a big-picture view of ML and its increasing impact on everyday life and on the enterprise. Hear about the impacts, disruptions and opportunities underway for the computing industry, cloud services companies, Intel and other major players in the chip industry. Finally, we will end with some futuristic visions and predictions of long-term impact of AI and ML.
